The Sound of the 21st Century!

"The most entertaining band I think I may have seen in ten years of on-line reviewing." - Manuel Ecostos from Manchester Music

"Up-Lift sound damn good; they pack quite a punch and have some very cool ideas that set them apart somewhat from many of the more straight-laced 'indie' bands around at the moment." - Toxic Pete

“Up-Lift mixes pop and rock with funk and a touch of electro as they endeavour to bring a 'spacey' aspect to their unusual brand of pop/rock”. - Toxic Pete

Why "Climb the Tail"?

It's all about the Long Tail theory - how MySpace has changed the music industry for ever. For bands to make it into the mainstream they have to climb up the tail.
